Anyway, after a very very long time I stared a new Civ 5 LP. This one is a standard Civilization 5 let's play as William of The Netherlands. We are using all official expansions and DLCs but no mods.

The objective is to win a domination victory on Immortal difficulty level. Welcome to join me on the channel!...

In this game I am using the "Europe 154 x 129 (South)" by Rixtixaxis found on the steam workshop. However, I edited the map which can be seen above. I am playing as Poland so most of the new information will most likely be Poland centered. I am playing on Prince. I was playing on warlord but decided to start over because it got too easy and boring.

I just uploaded the first part of my very first let's play. We're trying out the deity mode in Vox Populi, without winning on it before.
Also please have in mind that this is my first LP, I do not usually speak english and my ingame skills are average I would say. So every criticism towards gameplay and quality are greatly appreciated.
Hope you enjoy!

I always wondered, why nobody made a let's play with this mod yet. I found the mod sometimes unstable, but I guess, this is only the case with a certain mod mixture. I had to get rid of the "really advanced setup" mod for example.
Anyway, have a look...

Choose your civilization modded or vanilla (keep in mind that all modded civs might not work, better to choose also a backup).
Customize your favorite civ's name, leader, colors and also add some custom city names here and there (if you want, of course).

I've recently decided to give it a shot at becoming a YouTuber and I started with playing Civilization V along with the Winter is Coming to Civ Deluxe mod that has been this week's most popular download on Steam.

I thought I'd share my playthrough with you guys, I will be uploading new videos every day.

The first video in the series is explaining the mod so that people who also want to play it can make the best decision on which Civilization to choose.

My first idea was to run a game centered around a republic. It would be very similar to a realpoltik-type game with my own little twist on it. Each person would choose and/or be assigned an output type (culture, faith, science, production, gold) and would earn points each turn from the...
